This course is all about learning the elements of Technical / Engineering Drawing. A picture is worth a thousand words and an animation is worth a thousand pictures. And by the end of this course you will realize how easy it gets to learn stuff from animations. This is not merely a subject to consume, but it's a language which allows engineers across various disciplines to communicate. This course is relevant across all disciplines of Engineering be it Mechanical, Civil, Electrical or Computer Science. This is a mandatory first year course in most of the universities globally.
In Part II of Engineering Drawing, we will be covering the following topics in depth:
1. Projection of Lines: In orthographic projection, lines are projected perpendicular to the projection plane, resulting in a series of two-dimensional views that provide different perspectives of the object. These views include front view, top view, right-side view, and other sectional views, depending on the complexity and requirements of the object being represented.
2. Traces of Lines: This is an advanced topic where line end points are extended to meet at a point on Principal Plane. A horizontal trace is a point where the line meets the Horizontal Plane. A Vertical trace is a point where the line meets the Vertical Plane.
3. Projection of Planes: Projection of planes involves visualizing and communicating the spatial relationships and features of flat surfaces in a two-dimensional drawing. It plays a vital role in accurately representing objects and conveying critical information in engineering drawings.
4. Auxiliary Planes (Shortcut to Orthographic Projections): This is an alternative to the traditional Change of Position Method. Here instead of changing the position of object, Auxiliary Planes are set up and the corresponding Top View and Front Views are projected directly onto it. With a little practice and intuition, you can master this projection technique.
5. Projection of Solids: Projection of solids is a fundamental aspect of engineering drawing, enabling the accurate representation of three-dimensional objects on a two-dimensional plane. We are mostly going to be dealing with standard 3D shapes line Polyhedra (Prism, Pyramids) and Solids of Revolution (Cone and Cylinder)
